Egg white powder DIY at a fraction of the cost

[@joeschmo1194]

Baking Bad! 🧪 🧑‍🔬 I LOVE IT THANK YOU!

[@sh-k2739]

I had no idea that it was this easy. Thank you for doing this video.

[@HomesteadOntario]

It was a test for me and it worked well so I’m glad I’m able to share

[@yoyomax12]

I did the same thing, checked Amazon for the powdered egg whites. CRAZY expensive. Thanks for the demonstration, I am excited to make my own.

[@JoséMoralesVargas-d2d]

Im so grateful i could cry, thank you.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Just keep thin and dry slow

[@wearetubes]

This is amazing. And after watching it, I made my first purchase of egg white powder. 😂

[@SSS-v8v7n]

OF COURSE!! Because a Good commercial stand mixer cost not far from $1000USD

[@jaynegossett6638]

You go girl, that is amazing!

[@HomesteadOntario]

Thank you

[@Chief_Steve]

thank you so much , we have a family of 8 on carnivore and the egg white powder is just as much as our summer and winter electric bills

[@HomesteadOntario]

You are so welcome!

[@gretatillett1100]

Thank you so much. I have just started Keto and found some of the ingredients for bread rolls a hideous price and it rather put me off the diet. That was a sad state of affairs, my sons virtually bulldozed me into this, and then found it way beyond our means. My husband is our sole source of income and is retired, so I virtually gave up having to balance it all. Both sons were furious that I gave up so easily and want me back on it. I need the diet for health reasons, to try and eliminate a lot of the medication I have to have. So I scoured the internet and found your wonderful trick. My heart felt thanks to you for sharing such a lovely tip❤

[@keinohrtini]

I don’t know what happened! The prices on Amazon tripled since I last bought it there!

[@ketogorl]

*THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!* I too, refused to pay that much for egg white powder - but sometimes I just want to eat a sandwich!!

[@GetRhythm2011]

Thank you for this. :)I'l give it a go tomorrow. I too have about 20 or so chickens producing MANY EGGS EVERY DAY. ;)This will be a GREAT use of so many eggs.

[@godsguitar101]

Brilliant!

[@sherylldupuis6323]

Brilliant. I am going to do this right now. Wow. What a money saving genius. Hugs to you and thank you so much 🤗🇨🇦

[@victoriac1010]

This is just simply fantastic! I don't have a lot of room in my freezer so I was delighted to defrost these and turn them into egg powder thanks to you! I was very concerned about these browning on the bottom, so I embellished a bit... Once I spread the egg whites out on the parchment I divided it evenly into squares without really separating the eggs on the sheet, but creating the ability to flip the egg whites one at a time once they started drying. Once I could see the top was fairly dry, and the bottom still somewhat damp, I noticed that the parchment was completely soggy. With the silicone spatula, I flipped flip each square onto a fresh parchment paper upside down and continued drying. One flip was sufficient. Result was ideal… Just like yours… And I use the top rack like you suggested so they didn't brown. Thank you so so so much.

Thank you for your feed back and sharing your experience

[@donnell688]

Contrary to Star Trek' s Spock when he said it's not logical, Jim! Your logic was spot on right. Thank you so much for this video. We get our milk from the Amish and we have 8 chicks. Being on the Carnivore diet I found a recipe for pancakes and syrup that is made with egg powder, I had never heard of it, dummy me and I'm a young 77.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Your comment made me laugh out loud

[@shivalishankersharma1562]

This is life game changing. Thank you

[@ShummyTips]

I love this idea 💡 honestly you are great 👍 thank you for sharing ❤

[@keinohrtini]

Thank you for this great video! I have some boxed liquid egg whites left and will try your recipe! I wanted to buy egg white powder from Amazon, but despite the ridiculous price increase I am more concerned that ppl constantly review that their powder tastes fishy, doesn’t mix well, doesn’t get stiff peaks even after 45 min of mixing in a stand mixer… I believe companies are cutting corners and mix stuff in to get higher profits.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Feed back from viewers is that this only works with fresh eggs. Boxed eggs have been pasteurized this may be what affects the results

[@tonegalan25]

This is fantastic

[@ArtsiAlie]

Amazing!! I thought you were doing to freeze dry but not even a dehydrator was used! Just your oven! Thanks for sharing this way! What did you end up making with it?

[@lisabonfrancesco3739]

Nice ! You can use a dehydrator too. I have that function on my air fryer.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Tell me more I would try that

[@GetRhythm2011]

@@HomesteadOntario ME TOO! Please educate 🙏 the bunch of us interested folks. 😉

[@elisabethgabrich8339]

This is great! How long should it be in the oven for?

[@HomesteadOntario]

Depends on thickness

[@kimhorner6098]

Hi There, i think this is a great idea! I too am keto/carnivore. I want to try this because you are correct on egg white powder being ridiculous. My question is approximately how long did you keep them in the oven before they dried out?

[@HomesteadOntario]

Every oven is different, electric will dry faster as a dry heat mine is propane so its a moist heat .. i did about 2-3 hrs but i don’t recommend 2 trays at same time best to have air around one pan I am going to do more test to see what ends up working best Its eggs season so lots to work with

[@_brandonn8516]

THANK YOU!!!

Now this is legit💪

[@arslanmoghal5472]

Nice 👍

[@bronwyndoyle650]

wow this helped big time TY🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@HomesteadOntario]

So glad!

[@IknowGodIs]

By pre-whipping, my question is when you’re using it in a recipe that is going to need to form stiff peaks, I’m wondering if that’s still going to happen. What was your result in using this in those types of recipes?

[@HomesteadOntario]

I haven’t tried that - only doing this for carnivore breads I always have lots of eggs so always have fresh

[@shirleymiller5056]

Update results please in a bread recipe

[@HomesteadOntario]

I tried Chris Nashville recipe for hamburger buns and liked them Actually plan to do my own video Check him out he has a lot of baking using the egg white powder kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXjCqKmcj7alZ80si=1Z2rSSyXpfAlJ3_W

Fantastic! How long did you keep it in the oven approximately?

[@HomesteadOntario]

I did 6 hrs at 260 But really keep checking because it depends on thickness

@@HomesteadOntario Thank you! 260F seems too high compared to she talked about (140-170F)

[@Daddy_Jim]

Hello :) Do you think this would work using carton egg whites? Eggs are very expensive here :( but the carton ones are more affordable to me :D

[@HomesteadOntario]

From other comments here No it does not work Carton eggs more affordable because they are pasteurized and over processed Stick to food that is least handled

[@kimbeckner9240]

Get yourself a coffee bean/spice grinder, they’re super powerful but only a bit.

[@HomesteadOntario]

I have my vitamix dry container just didn’t want to pull it out for a small amount I am now doing larger quantities after initial trial and all good Thx for the input

[@carolkendall9147]

Did not take very long does not give us the approximate time

[@laurajohnson8832]

How long was the egg whites in the oven at the low temperature?

[@HomesteadOntario]

You have to really check each batch because every oven is different as well the thickness of the whites I have made several batches and all took different times

[@abdallah_agha]

Actually, I tried it today, but I think i needed to keep it a bit in the oven because when I blended it, it was a bit smooshy. I thought it could turn into a solution directly in water, but it didn't. Anyway, it's the first time for me doing it. but nevertheless, i will try again tomorrow.

[@HomesteadOntario]

I find out with all these projects. It’s trial and error until it works perfect for you and your uses.

[@abdallah_agha]

​@HomesteadOntario For how long must it be in the oven on 170 degrees?

[@HomesteadOntario]

It depends on the thickness of your spread what I do is often if I have a thicker layer, I will turn on and off the oven. Wait a few hours sometimes leave it off overnight. Continue the next day to avoid burning, but ensuring that is completely dried out.

[@carollizc]

I went to Healthy Planet a couple of months ago to price egg white powder. Over $70!!! Good grief! I nearly fainted! I need the egg white powder for psmf bread and carnivore breads. I mean, golly, i don't have my own eggs, but there's got to be a way of producing the egg white powder that is less expensive.

[@SBhunter]

how long does it stay good?

[@TuğganAğar]

How long did it stay in the oven?

[@HomesteadOntario]

Will depend on the thickness of your egg whites example 1cm will dry faster than 2 cm thickness

[@itsmrhammer8427]

so can you mix this with milk to make almost like a protein shake or does it need cooked once it’s rehydrated ?

[@HomesteadOntario]

I would think so, does not need cooking I only use it for carnivore baking So I don’t us know if you do it and how it worked

[@itsmrhammer8427]

@@HomesteadOntario well i’m thinking since it’s baked in the oven it’s probably baked through enough? and i’m assuming it’s the same concept even if you add the egg yolks with it to make a “egg powder”. i’ll have to try it!

[@dominusstyx]

Is it possible to make powder from egg white liquid, from carton, using the same method? Thank you.

[@HomesteadOntario]

NO other viewers have tried and commented that it was a fail. I assume because liquid egg whites are pasteurized; therefore, changing the proteins.

[@dominusstyx]

@@HomesteadOntario Thank you. It makes sense, when you think about it. Just noticed you say Ontario, I’m Ottawan mys

[@dominusstyx]

@@HomesteadOntario …elf. Lolol I send it by accident. Take care.

[@victoriac1010]

Does this need to be refrigerated?

[@HomesteadOntario]

No, that’s the point of dehydrating. It makes it shelf stable and for very long time.

[@kelleybondurant2174]

So is "egg white powder" the same as " egg white protein powder "?

[@tahde]

yes

[@HomesteadOntario]

Sometimes egg white protein powder has additives Egg white powder is pure egg whites

[@zoidlux2016]

I wonder if I can use this as a protein powder because whey protein is quite expensive.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Others have commented same Not sure but worth a try

[@BuzzingGoober]

So what are you making with this? I haven't seen you use it for anything you've posted on youtube.

Can this be done with whole egg

You can absolutely try it. I haven’t tried it myself because I was just trying to come up with egg white powder for carnivore baking but if you do try whole egg, let us know how it works. We’re all here to share.

[@marcgabel5165]

I find any heat I use to dry the meringue causes it to melt back to liquid even a food dehydrator

[@HomesteadOntario]

First whip to a hard peak! If you notice beads of liquid condensation forming on the surface of the meringue while it bakes, that's a sign that your oven temperature is too low. The solution: crank up the heat and shorten the cooking time. All ovens are different so trial and error

[@marcgabel5165]

@@HomesteadOntario Thanks, Saw no beads. Do you have a oven temperature to set it to. I can alway set my oven with a thermometer.I was worried about browning it like your first attempt. I would like to get the separate whites to work because a quart is only eight bucks.

[@kathynash6780]

How many eggs did you use?

[@HomesteadOntario]

I have no measurements I use what I had and I honestly cannot remember, what I use that day a little whileago.

[@gretatillett1100]

I remember you saying 36 eggs. I have a fan oven so I suppose that will work a bit quicker. The fan can be used without heat, but I presume that would take all day, specially since I live in the sub tropics with high humidity. Such a good tip you are passing on thank you and Blessings from S Africa.

[@carolkendall9147]

How long in oven at 170*?

[@HomesteadOntario]

It depends on how thick you spread it Really need to check every 30 min Mine took 4 hrs then I left in oven over night to sit

[@marcgabel5165]

Has anybody else got this to dry with heat. I just get liquid forming on the parchment paper.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Too thick? Or not whipped enough

[@shirleymiller5056]

Iherb 10 lbs x2=$305.00 Yes $$$$

[@shortlinet]

Use a coffee grinder

[@marcgabel5165]

I whipped for a long time and it still melts. I am using just pure egg in a container but it should still work. I am beginning to think it’s a scam.

[@HomesteadOntario]

Not a scam i have nothing to gain. Are you using egg whites or whole egg? Should be whites only Same process as making meringue

[@marcgabel5165]

I used a stand mixer on high for maybe 10 minutes. And I used pure egg white from a carton. It was just like meringue. And thick enough to stand up at the sides of the bowl. I would say thicker then normal meringue. Looked like styrofoamI set my oven on the lowest setting and put it on parchment paper on a baking sheet. My first try the paper was covered with liquid. Second try I turned my oven off so not as hot. Still liquid. Then I set on low convection with air blowing over. Next I tried my dehydrator on low. All with the same results. I let it dry on the racks themselves over night. From one quart of egg white I ended with maybe two tablespoons of powder. All I can see is the pure egg. White isn’t pure egg white. Can you do it with the carton of egg white?

[@HomesteadOntario]

Eggs from a carton are pasteurized, so I assume thats the problem I only use fresh eggs.

[@marcgabel5165]

@@HomesteadOntario I think your right. They are. Too bad the powder is so expensive. Thanks for your help.
